Themed "Together 2002", the service began with the various pastors appearing on stage and linking hands to symbolise unity. Organising chairman Pr Nicholas Wu then welcomed the congregation, followed by the sound of shofars to kick off the worship session, which was enhanced by some 40 dancers from the different churches.

Director of Prayer Wave Asia, Singapore, Lai-Kheng Pousson gave a challenging message on evangelising Asia and beyond, stressing that unity, alongside urgency and passion, is an essential ingredient to revival.

Commenting on the effort put in by the different churches, Pr Wu said: "The fact that the pastors can work together without any sense of insecurity is a clear sign that the barriers between churches are coming down." The other pastors concurred. They hope to organise a wider-scale, community-based combined worship service in mid-2003.
